While Michelle Wolfe is really cute and the actress that played Chelsea Chihuahua is pretty sexy, it's just not enough to save this film. I am not really into role playing but if I were, I surely would like to hope it would be more interesting than what was displayed in this film. Also, the film was supposed to have a S&M aspect to it but other than several actors wearing leather, that's about as far as it goes. Pass on this one unless you don't really care about the script and delivery of lines.

The acting was pretty lame, but not entirely the actors' fault--the characters were so one-dimensional and "caricature-like' that it couldn't really have been done any better. Surreal and bizarre but not in a psychologically challenging way. Just in a weird way.

Hey, Blockbuster guys, this movie should be on the If-You-Like page for both "Amelie" and "Secretary." It shares positive traits with both. This is a wild and playful movie with a good heart. It is framed by a running mixed metaphor of candy store and nautical motifs, but it somehow makes the confusion work. "Mango Kiss" plays like a lighter-mooded "Glass Menagerie," i.e. a memory play with ironic, self-deprecating narrative voiceovers by Lou, and flashes into the characters' imaginations (including scene titles in cartoony body paint). On the surface, it is a slapstick game of alternative-lifestyle girls playing dress up, but what makes the movie worthwhile is that the characters, not just Lou and Sass, but their various eccentric neighbors too, are written, directed, and acted in full three dimensions. Each is, underneath all the costume jewelry, a genuine person trying to find her identity, and, even more, trying to find true love and acceptance.
